Happy in his studies; an acute disputant;
A seraphic preacher; an elegant writer;
In all full of learning, and very famous;
Exact in his sentiments, and excellent in his morals;
An unwearied patron of Christian truth, piety and charity;
An utter enemy to all kinds of vice and error.
The glory of the church and the city he belonged to,
Where he had worn himself quite out in praying,
And watching for the good of God’s people,
Peacefully fell asleep in JESUS
ON JUNE 26, 1691; AGED 61.
His works are at this time again passing through the press in England, which in a great degree goes to establish these lines penned by Mr. Richard Baxter, when he says of Flavel,
His virtues would a monument supply,
But underneath this stone his ashes lie.
Could grace or learning from the grave set free,
Flavel thou hadst not seen mortality.
Tho' here thy dusty part death’s victim lies,
Thou by thy works thyself doth eternize,
Which death nor rust of time shall overthrow;
Whilst thou dost reign above these live below.
